Country music and line dancing seem to go together like peanut butter and jelly. But, line dancing originally was danced to folk music. Which bloomed the style called contra dancing where dancers form two parallel lines while everyone moves in sequence and switching dance partners down the line.

It can definitely be difficult to get the hang of especially if you’re trying to mirror all of the other dancers around you.

But line dancing does have a way of bringing everyone together from the experienced dancers to the newer dancers. Everyone can learn, all you need is a supportive team and lots of practice. These 5 line dancers were up for the challenge!

They all choreographed a flowing line dance to the classic Alan Jackson song called “Chattahoochee”.

After watching this video you’ll want to break out your dancing shoes and learn right along with them. These 5 gals look like they’re the best of friends which would be a total blast learning a dance together. They’ve got the outfits down, all wearing a pink shirt with a cowboy hat and denim jeans.

They started in a staggered line as their legs twisted and jived all throughout the grass.

For a moment it almost looks easy until your eyes get tangled watching their feet. You’ll learn pretty quickly line dancing takes some serious skill. But, these 5 talented gals strut their boots together and also in a solo performance. The solo seemed like a perfect opportunity to get some extra practice.

While each person got their solo the other girls sat in the background enjoying the relaxation in the grass.

As the famous Chattahoochee song continued to play the girls moved and grooved. The more they continued to dance together the more in sync they became, which just goes to show, practice makes perfect.

These 5 line dancing ladies smiled bright while showing off their shuffling moves.

Like most dances, line dancing has a certain number of beats but that doesn’t mean you’re tapping your feet to every beat. You’ll notice in this dance that every move to the left or right is also a movement to the beat.
